Woman Made Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of a solo exhibition "Out of Balance"Â with paintings and collages by Rosemary Luckett Reacting to human interaction with the natural world around her, Virginia artist Rosemary Luckett's imagery in "Out of Balance"Â at Woman Made Gallery links up images of living species to seemingly innocuous human made items.
Each surreal pairing implies a connection that is often hidden or denied. In some works the names of extinct or endangered species are written over and over, a litany of sorrow, a prayer that killing these creatures will cease. Her landscape paintings and collages embrace a language of easily understood objects such as trees, ledger pages, fish, air fresheners, axes and birds.
Included in this timely exhibit is a wall book of twelve 11 x 11 inch collages and a hand bound artist's edition of The Trees Speak, poems and drawings of 36 trees in both the earthly and the spiritual realms. All the works presented in Luckett's "Out of Balance"Â invite the viewer into a contemplation of the wonder of the natural world and humanity's multifaceted connections to it.
Works are up through June 21. -- www.womanmade.org
